Johnny Manziel, the best known player in this draft, remains something of a lightning rod for NFL draft analysts.

Although he’s usually referred as one of the top three quarterbacks in this draft along with Teddy Bridgewater and Blake Bortles, there are plenty of skeptics who doubt he will make it big in the NFL.

One of the biggest skeptics is former Eagle quarterback Ron Jaworski, who said this week in a radio interview that he wouldn’t draft Manziel on the first three round rounds.

“Manziel may fall. I’m not crazy about him, to be honest with you. I’ve only looked at five games. I wouldn’t take him in the first three rounds. That’s my opinion. It’s incomplete right now (because he wants to watch him play more games on videotape). But he has not done a whole lot for me,’’ he said.

In another interview, Jaworski said, “He’s a random quarterback who likes to get out of the pocket and make plays with his legs. In the NFL, he won’t last three games playing that style. He took a lot of vicious hits at Texas A@M in the last two years.’’

Then there is his off the field persona.

Former coach Barry Switzer is not a fan of his off the field conduct.

“I don’t like his antics,’’ he said in a radio interview. ”I think he’s an arrogant little (expletive). I’ve said that and I’ll say it again. He’s a privileged kid. He’s embarrassed himself. He’s embarrassed his teammates, his program. He’s embarrassed his coach. And they’ll all have to defend him because they have to coach. I know that. I spent 40 years in the game so I know how it works.’’

Switzer, though, does like his play on the field.

“He’s the most dominant, most dynamic college quarterback I’ve ever seen,’’ he said.

He added, “It’s fantastic what he’s done against good competition.’’

So the debate continues.

It’s very unlikely Manziel won’t go in the first three rounds despite Jaworski’s comments. There are too many teams that need quarterbacks and one of them will gamble on him. He still seems likely to be a top ten pick if not top five.

Meanwhile, Bortles, the only one of the three to throw at the combine, didn’t turn many heads with his workout, but had no regrets about not throwing.

“Why wait until Pro Day?’’ he said on the Dan Patrick Show.” I wanted to take part and compete in every part of him.’’

The scouts showed they had done their homework on his personal life. He said multiple teams asked that when they took him out to dinner whether his girlfriend, model Lindsey Duke, would join them.

“If we come to town, will she be there for dinner and stuff like that,’’ he said. “They knew (about the girlfriend) going into the meeting. I think that was kinda the angle, how I would react to it.’’

For the quarterbacks, the scrutiny never ends.

And since none of them appear to be an Andrew Luck type franchise quarterback, the debate will continue as scouts try to decide where they fit in the draft.

Yea, 2 months of talking about who threw or who didn't throw footballs at the combine. The combine is only good for the the top scout decision makers for all the teams. Not for the public. We as fans pretty much know who we want as a top pick. Nobody here is clamoring for Bortles. Even his own college coach doesn't think he should go that high in the draft, but would if he turns out to be another Andrew Luck, in terms of physicality, completing long pass plays and running for first downs?
